Beads made from chiffon fabric and threads

This bead was made in a similar manner to the beads shown below. I made it from a long strip of blue chiffon. I wrapped the chiffon round a barbeque stick, added threads, then heated and distorted it with a heat gun. The chiffon melted and fused together and formed a solid bead with a hole through it

THANK YOU FOR VISITING ME HERE

Currently I post my weekly collages for The Collage Workbook project on a Wednesday. I'm also continuing to work on my samples for the Surface Treatment Workshop and will share from time to time. My first love is textiles and I'm working on some personal projects at present. I shall get back to sharing textiles and free tutorials again in the future.

SHOP NEWS - I'm sorry that my online etsy shop is closed for the foreseeable future. I'm unable to take custom orders or reply to messages and enquiries at this time. I hope to re-open in the future but, for health reasons, I am taking a break from selling my work. I would like to thank each and every one of my customers for their kindness and loyalty. I will let you know when the shop is open again. Thank you.
